Life Science Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Fort Deposit, AL

GED level Adult Education Instructor for 9 years. I have taught in community GED classes in Georgia also. My experience in Alabama has been with the penal system. This has been a rewarding place to work. We are responsible for over 100 GED's each year. In Georgia, I also taught basic computer skills. Reading was the main focus of this promgram. I taught mothers to read to their children. I also teach voice privately. My teaching style is determined by the needs of my class. Each person learns differently. I have found that a teacher must provide visible, hands-on, lectures, and kinetic teaching styles to meet the needs of a class. At some point every student must learn to work independently.

I have had over 15 years of tutoring and/or teaching experience. I have worked with different age groups, my preferred and primary being adults. I am currently working on my master’s thesis in mathematics, by which I expect to graduate fairly soon. I am patient, creative, and thorough in my interaction with students. I am also flexible to manage different learning styles while effectively achieving the learning goals of the student. I start off with the student displaying what they know and/or don't know. I give an example and and encourage feedback in order to guage the student's understanding. Finally, I have the student to show their understanding. Sometimes, it may take different methods because people learn differently.

I believe all children have potential to learn. I always try to find the best approach for teaching each child. I believe in positive reinforcement and giving a child a feeling of accomplishment after they have experienced so many feelings of failure. Teaching a child one on one is a much needed teaching method for a lot of children. I try to make learning fun and I love to see the light bulb pop on in their little minds! I have taught public school in the Montgomery County School System for 26 years. I retired May 2010. I have taught grades 1-6 in All subject areas. I received my Bachelor's Degree in Education in 1983 from Auburn University. I received my Master's Degree in Education from Troy State University at Montgomery in 1990. I have worked extensively with children in many areas due to the No Child left Behind Act. I have been to a Reading Academy, workshops, on the job

I have completed coursework in all types of life sciences classes. Visual. I completed coursework in several biology and chemistry classes. This coursework included labs and field work. The biology labs I have experience in include: Zoology, Ecology, Freshwater Biology, Insect, and Fish Biology. These labs were highly detailed and included all levels of dissections, identification of species using taxonomic keys, and microscope work. The field work included species colllection, mapping, and sample collection. Lab reports and field notes were required as part of the labs. The seminars for these courses involved all aspects of biology and life sciences. The exams for these courses were involved and would require 2-5 page essays on biological systems. I have experience in writing term(research) papers in all subjects relating to biology. I successfully maintained an A/B average in my biol

During my internship, teaching was a joy for me. I know this is my destiny and is the field that I'm supposed to be in for the rest of my life. My teaching style is firm and I try my best to make sure I do everything possible for the students in my possession. All children can learn and will learn with the proper attention and learning skills.I believe that each student is unique and not eveything works for everybody and some people need more attention and some people need less, but it is up to the instructor to find out which way is better. I am a graduate from Auburn University in Montgomery. I have a degree in Elementary Education and Early Childhood Education. I am now attending Ashford University to obtain my Master's degree in Early Childhood Education, which consists of grades K-5. I have not currently started teaching, but I hope my chance is coming soon and I will be teaching th

After completing my MS in Mathematics from CSU East Bay, I began tutoring high school students privately. Then, I taught Finite Math, Elementary Algebra, and Intermediate Algebra courses at Faulkner University and at Auburn University Montgomery as an adjunct instructor. This past year I taught high school math, science and Spanish at a Success Unlimited Academy (private). I also tutored K-12 students in math and science. I have successfully worked with autistic as well as children with ADD. I enjoy teaching one-on-one and have found this to be the most effective in regards to my students success. I believe that every student can do well in math but every student has a different pace. I try to adapt to each student's pace/learning style as I explain a new concept.

I have a degree in Early Childhool however, I have taught Biology for 9th and 10th graders in a private school. My husband, being prior military kept us moving so I have been a substitute for many years. I also taught my son until the 4th grade and he is now attending private school. I believe that there are 3 types of learners: 1.Oral : learn by hearing 2.Visual : learn by seeing 3.Kinesthetic: learn by hearing, seeing and using their hands The Oral learner is a “teacher’s pet” because they are the students that will listen in class, barely take notes and do quite well in school. The Visual learner must “look on” as a teacher reads, not taking notes but to follow along in a book. The Kinesthetic learner usually has to listen, take notes, read along but will also tap their foot or a pencil.These types of “distractions” actually help a kinesthetic learner.

I will be graduating in less than a week with a bachelor's degree in General Biology from Auburn University at Montgomery. Though my interest lies mostly in the zoology and conservation fields, unfortunately AUM does not offer these as specific fields of study. During my studies I acted as a private tutor for a senior in high school struggling with geometry and some algebra. I consider this quite a rewarding experience which only strengthened my desire to teach high school sciences, specifically conservation studies and human anatomy later in life. I strive to bring my personal level of enthusiasm into the classroom and encourage students to find enjoyment in learning. Several subjects interest me in such a way that I truly love to learn more about them each day. I would love to show even a single student that studying is more than simply memorizing facts to pass a class but that if he/s

I enjoy assisting and helping students to achieve their desired goals in life. I have been a mentor tutor for sixteen years and I get great satisfaction watching students learn and attain their goals and achievements. I also enjoy motivating children to pursue their dreams and never give up on any subject and study hard as well. I have a patient, easy going personality with children and I always stress to them to do their best. Education is the key for children at all ages and I always encourage them to always push themselves to be the best. I can proudly say that I have made a tremendous difference in many children lives. My bachelor of science degree in businss administration has allowed me pursue my career goals as a computer programmer analyst while i was employed at Alabama State University where I assisted the faculty and staff with computerized reports for students as welll a

I just recently graduated with my Master's Degree in Biomedical Sciences from the Philadelphia College of Osteopathic Medicine in Suwanee, Georgia. I received my Bachelor's Degree in Biology with a Chemistry Minor in May 2007 from the University of Alabama at Birmingham. I enjoy the sciences very much. I have tutored before with Kumon in Birmingham, AL and Basic Learning Center in Lawrenceville, GA. I tutored children from the ages of 5 to 13 in Reading and Math. I tutored various high school students in Math, Biology, and Chemistry. Before all of this, I also tutored family friends as a part-time job throughout high school and college in various subjects. I am great with kids of all ages. My future goal in life is to become a family dentist. Therefore, I have grasped the act of patience very well, and nothing pleases more than helping others in any way possible. All my students would te

I am a true believer that learning is one the most rewarding and exciting aspects of an education. Being a peer tutor and having other leadership positions, I am aware that people are individuals and therefore will have diverse learning styles. Through my rigorous studying for enterance into medical school, I realize that the most effective way to determine if a student is truly comprehending a concept is to get them to "teach" or explain the concept back to the instructor. If a tutee can properly explain the lesson that was taught, then it is a clear indication the student understands. Discipline is very important to me and I an advocate of always going beyond what is required because the latter reward will always be great. I graduated summa cum laude with a Bachelor's Degree in Biology. As a Biology/ Pre-Med student, I have extensively studied the many aspects of biology, from general

My name is Briana and my college major is Elementary Education with endorsements in ESOL and Reading. At the University of West Florida I have maintained a 3.6 GPA and have been on the Dean’s List and the President’s List. This is an important achievement. However, I do not take this to be my greatest asset. It is my belief that my love for children and desire to see them learn, even as I increase my knowledge, is of greater value. During my college career I have made myself available to volunteer outside the classroom. I have worked in schools, science fairs, church schools, and other organizations. In participating in these events I have learned from others by observing and being a part of the educational experience. It is not a duty, but an opportunity. I believe that each child is a unique individual who needs a secure, caring, and stimulating atmosphere in which to grow and

Having worked with children for many years in versatile environments, I have learned that every child has a unique way of learning. One may need visual representation, while another comprehends better via audio learning. Some children retain more information through hands-on activities while it is easier for another to read the material. Whatever the case may be, I revise my methods to better suit the needs of each child. Our future is dependent on the children of today. With patience and instruction, their potential can shine through. Working towards my B.S. in environmental studies I had the opportunity to work as a high school tutor in mathematics and science. I worked with children in a traditional manner, tutoring them after school by working through homework problems and past test/quiz questions. After graduation I began educating children at a nature center in a less traditio
